Praise be unto my gracious Lord!

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCCXXVII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Praise be unto my gracious Lord! Who heard my humble mourn, Whose providence was my safeguard, And caus'd my safe return. 2 Beset with dangers all around, And threats of overthrow; But still a way for me was found, That brought me safely through. 3 Whilst numbers of my fellow-men Were hasten'd to the tomb, And never will return again To their respective home. 4 This proves the cause of great distress, To those they left behind: Their main support for temp'ral bliss, No more on earth they find. 5 What better, Lord, am I than they! Why was it not my case? To die abroad and stay away, From this my home and place. 6 I was preserved by thy care, But O! I know not why? For I am vile as other are, Like they, deserve to die. 7 My God, how thankful should I be, For all thy hand has wrought; Great are thy mercies unto me, But I deserve them not. 8 Therefore I praise thee so much more, All praise to thee I give! I will engage my utmost pow'r, And thank thee while I live. Topics: Military Hymns Thanksgiving for a safe return from camp Languages: English
